The Carolina Hurricanes finished a tough week both in opponents faced and results. The week shaped up with three contests against three playoff teams from the prior season.
The week began with a game in Florida against the reigning President’s Trophy winners, followed up by a visit from Connor McDavid and the Edmonton Oilers.
To wrap up the week, Carolina headed to the Stanley Cup champions in Colorado to face the Avalanche.
The week started with the injury news to starting goaltender, Frederik Andersen.
Not the news a team needed when facing the likes of three of the top offenses in the NHL.
